THE COVID-19 VACCINE PEDIATRIC STUDY

Los Angeles CA

Description

PARENTS: YOUR CHILD CAN HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE FIGHT AGAINST COVID-19 Every modern vaccine was first tested in clinical trials involving hundreds to thousands of people before becoming available to the public. While progress has been made to develop COVID-19 vaccines for adults, currently there are no approved COVID-19 vaccines available for children. Before they can be approved, COVID-19 vaccines need to be studied in a clinical trial that involves children. In this pediatric COVID study, we will learn if the COVID-19 study vaccine can produce an immune response against COVID-19, and if it is safe, in children 6 months to 11 years old.* All participants will have the opportunity to receive the COVID-19 study vaccine during their time in the trial. Participation in clinical trials by children of all backgrounds will make a difference by contributing to the development of vaccines for everyone. Joining a clinical trial is an important and personal decision for you and your family. We hope it is one you and your child will consider. *Currently Ages 5-11 (only) available this week.
